| I only have a few roses that are not pink I'm realizing! I can't get enough pinks. These few looked nice when I arrived home today from a week at the beach. Most of my roses are still so young that it's rare for the bush as a whole to look nice. St Cecilia
Snow Pavement I LOVE this rose. It has bloomed non stop for me since early summer with the most delicate blooms. Good fragrance also.
Belinda's Dream
The Ingenious Mr. Fairchild constant bloomer
And a tiny little Stanwell Perpetual I keep de-budding this one and it seems to make new buds overnight. It's determined to bloom!

| Gorgeous roses, Melody! Cool pinks are my favorite color in roses, closely followed by mauves and purples. St. Cecilia is gorgeous, I had no idea how pretty that rose is. Your Mr. Fairchild is equally beautiful. Mine is short and skinny and I wonder if it likes your climate better, although I'm inspired to try to make mine look a little more like yours. I'm so glad to see a garden other than my own here. If these are all young roses then I'm really impressed. Ingrid |

| Wow! So, so pretty! You've given me something to think about as I plan my own pink rose bed. |

Thank you all. These roses are in their second year. They love my front yard. They get the hottest sun there. The air flow is excellent also so I don't have many disease issues. The back yard is a different story! I have a few more photos to share. Buff Beauty

| Very pretty, Melody. Claire Rose is absolutely stuffed with petals, very pretty. I also have Marie Pavie, and it's a good rose, but for me the flowers are very fleeting. However, there are usually more to take their place in a short time, and it's a graceful plant. I would love to be able to grow Abraham Darby, so beautiful and yet so unhappy in my garden. Ingrid |
